Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Nurses must evaluate the effectiveness of their interventions to promote safety and prevent injury. If the expected client outcomes have been met and evaluative criteria satisfied, the client should be able to correctly identify real and potential unsafe environmental situations, and implement safety measures in the environment.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
An accident in a health care agency requires filling out an incident report, a confidential document that objectively describes the circumstances of the accident. The incident report is not a part of the medical record and should not be mentioned in the documentation. The report is maintained by the agency.
